Bug 195054

Summary:	Syntax Highlighting Randomly Disappears
Product:	editor	Reporter:	nrml
Component:	Painting & Printing	Assignee:	Miloslav Metelka <mmetelka>
Status:	CLOSED DUPLICATE
Severity:	normal	CC:	juhrik, mmirilovic
Priority:	P2
Version:	7.0
Hardware:	PC
OS:	Windows 7 x64
Issue Type:	DEFECT	Exception Reporter:
Attachments:	messages log from yesterday

Description nrml 2011-02-03 23:21:14 UTC

Very similar to this bug: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183709

But, for 7.0.

Visible code becomes plain text and loses all syntax highlighting. The code lower in the buffer looks fine and selecting / un-selecting the plain text restores syntax highlighting.

Could you please try to reproduce the problem in a recent dev build from http://bits.netbeans.org/download/trunk/nightly/latest/ ? Thanks.

Comment 5 Vladimir Voskresensky 2011-02-07 11:44:09 UTC

Hi Mila, 

I'm getting it quite often in daily builds for java and c++ files as well.
What kind of messages should I track in log to help you?
I don't know exact way to reproduce it.

Comment 6 Miloslav Metelka 2011-02-09 16:04:49 UTC

Hi Vladimir,
 does the highlighting disappear after any concrete action or just randomly?
 Please check if there are any lexer-related exceptions in the log or basically what exceptions are there if any.

Comment 7 David Strupl 2011-03-04 09:27:01 UTC

Hello, isn't this similar to #195855? Will the logging mentioned in that issue help to diagnose this one as well?
